Abstract— We consider communication over the Gaussian multiple access channel (MAC) with unknown set of active users. The proposed multiple access strategy is distributed and ach...

The multiple description coding of an independent and identically distributed Gaussian source over bit error channels is considered. A novel practical multiple description coding ...
— A rateless code—i.e., a rate-compatible family of codes—has the property that codewords of the higher rate codes are prefixes of those of the lower rate ones. A perfect fa...
In this paper the performance limits and design principles of rateless codes over fading channels are studied. The diversity-multiplexing tradeoff (DMT) is used to analyze the syst...
